This 15-year-old Highland single malt was bottled by The Single Malts of Scotland as a single cask release from Teaninich. Bottlings like this are typically presented at natural cask strength, which can make the whisky feel more intense and concentrated than standard releases.
A hogshead cask often gives a balanced influence of oak while still letting the distillery character show through. For a novice drinker, this is likely to be a more individual, limited whisky that highlights how one cask can differ from a wider core range.
